Early the next morning, in Gryffindor's common room—

Unlike their fellow Gryffindors who were making a fuss all over the place, the Harry Potter group seemed to have some thoughts.

Ginny Weasley, who was sitting on Harry's left hand side, was holding a somewhat strange book with pictures that didn't move, and she was looking at it with some fascination.

"Ginny, my dear sister!" Ron couldn't help but shout, "In another three or four months, you're going to start yours. LS exams, how do you have the heart to read those Muggle books?"

As he spoke, he tried to snatch the copy of Charles Darwin's "Origin of Species" from Ginny's hand.

Ginny deftly avoided him, "I'm just interested in what Professor Dumbledore said in Potions class, it took him a lot of effort for Dean to get me this book......"

"But ....... LS exam!" Ron said indignantly.

"I'm fine...... At least I won't fail to get an O!" Ginny mocked, "Although the grades won't be as good as Bill and Hermione, it's still okay to surpass you and Harry!"

Ron snorted coldly and stopped talking.

"Professor Dumbledore's understanding of the content of potions is interesting...... Is that right, Hermione?" Ginny turned to Hermione, seeking approval.

"yes!" Hermione nodded, hesitated for a moment, and then she spoke, "It's just that I didn't expect ......"

"What did you expect?" asked Ginny, curiously.

"It's nothing...... Hermione quickly shook her head when she noticed the loss.

"I think you'd better care more about Harry......" Ron said coldly.

Hermione hurriedly raised her head, and Ginny quickly put down the book in her hand.

"There's nothing to worry about, is there?" said Ginny, lowering her voice, "Harry told us last night...... Professor Dumbledore took him to see everything, and the mystery man was left with only one last Horcrux...... In that case......"

"But I always feel ......" Harry Potter also lowered his voice, "Professor Dumbledore's tone last night was like he was explaining the aftermath to me!"

"Aftermath...... Man, are you kidding?" Ron shook his head.

"No, I'm serious!" Harry said with a serious face, "He seems to have some other plans, so it's the same as leaving this task to me......"

"We?" Ron pointed to himself in disbelief, "let's a bunch of students who haven't graduated yet, go and take the last and only one of them from the mysterious man...... What's that......"

"Horcrux!" Ginny said clearly.

"yes, Horcrux!" Ron said with some fuss, "how can we do this? Aren't Professor Dumbledore and the Order of the Phoenix still around?"

"Be quiet, Ron!" Ginny gave him a blank look, "Don't forget, Professor Dumbledore has another mortal enemy." ”

There was a sudden silence between several people.

"I'm full!" Hermione was the first to break the silence and put down a piece of bread in her hand, though her face still looked lost in thought.

"Let's go to the Transfiguration class, there's still a quarter of an hour to go!" Ron followed.

The other two had no objections, and Ginny continued to look down at the Muggle book.

......

Three sixth-graders, each holding their textbooks, walked down the stairs.

Just at the top of the stairs on the seventh floor, a somewhat pale face approached, almost colliding with Ron.

"Malfoy!" Ron roared angrily, glancing at the uninvited guest in front of him.

Draco Malfoy turned to look at him as well, and continued up the stairs without looking back.

"Damn bastards, scum, butchers!" Ron yelled as he tugged at his wand.

If Harry and Hermione hadn't stopped him, he would have rushed up long ago.

"You can't attack him here, Ron. Hermione warned, "Don't you remember what Professor McGonagall said, if you reappear in the hallway, on the stairs, or in the bathroom, you will be expelled!"

"But have you forgotten what he did to Harry?" Ron snorted, "Why didn't Professor McGonagall fire him!"

However, he also gave up on continuing to catch up.

The three of them continued to walk towards the Transfiguration classroom on the second floor.

"That's right!" Harry Potter seemed to remember something, "Why did Malfoy go upstairs? Slytherin, like us, should take this Transfiguration lesson!"

"Maybe it's going to be confined. Hermione replied somewhat casually, "Have you forgotten...... Wait, that's not right...... Even if he went to Professor Snape to be locked up, he shouldn't have gone to the eighth floor!"

Hermione's face showed that puzzled look again.

"I said what do you care so much about, what is Malfoy going to do, what does it have to do with us?" Ron wondered, "I thought we might as well hurry up, it's only ten minutes before class...... If she was late, Professor McGonagall would have been furious. ”

......

Draco Malfoy tries to avoid the Gryffindor students who may be around him, and all Gryffindor students have regarded him as an enemy since his confrontation with Harry Potter.

Soon, he found himself on the eighth floor of Hogwarts Castle where the troll stick beats Barnabas the Silly.

There was a thin, skinny junior boy with eyes, and a short, ruddy-faced girl with two ponytails.

Both of them looked lazy, and when they saw Malfoy's appearance, they both quickly cheered up.

"Be on your guard, you two idiots!" Malfoy whispered, "Last time it was because of you, I almost got knocked over by Potter...... Crabbe, you observe the situation behind me, and Goyle, you take a few steps forward. ”

As both of his henchmen took the lead, Malfoy stared straight at the wall in front of him, then walked over it three times...... Then, suddenly, a very smooth door appeared on the wall!

"Don't doze off!" said Malfoy, striding through the door.

In the Responsive House, Malfoy is already familiar with the road. He walked as fast as he could, not realizing that he was making a loud noise, and of course he didn't meet anyone.

Until he walked to the vanishing cabinet that had taken him more than half a year-

"So- you're here again, Draco?" A voice suddenly came from behind him.

Hearing this, Draco Malfoy only felt that his internal organs suddenly froze into ice.

He looked behind him and saw someone sitting at a table by the wall.

PS: Recently, the new coronavirus pneumonia in Wuhan has made some people panic, please pay attention to personal hygiene protection...... But don't believe all kinds of bizarre rumors, and don't panic too much. The survival rate of the virus after leaving the host is very low, and the possibility of infection is very low as long as the virus is not in close contact with a carrier without protection.

Of course, the necessary protective measures must be taken well, after all, during the Chinese New Year, especially friends in Wuhan. Go out less, wear a mask when you go out, ventilate the room more, and more!
